We Bought a House

Property virgins no more!!! All the seraching, frustration, and rejected offers were worth finally finding our dream house. We truly feel at home.  We even love the neighbors, the most interesting of which is a crew of peacocks. Buying a house with my very patient husband was such a fun experience, but I don't want to do it again for a long time.

Here's a looksie at our crib:


Cooking instantly becomes easier when you have room for it. Who would have thought! 



This is the sectional of Michael's dreams.  It's perfect for Sunday naps.  Trust me.
                   
Sometimes a girl just needs a pantry.

Backyward view.  Most of the time it's crawling with peacocks, but they were being camera shy.  I also hear that it's mating season.  Please excuse their absence.  
 We were really particular about the master bathroom.  We know where our priorities are.  The his and her sinks helped this one to pass the test.
 Double shower-head.  Awwww yeahhhh.
 Master

 Guest bathroom.

Guest bedroom formerly used as a baby room.  Hope our guests like blue!
 mmmmmm...fireplace.
 Dining area.


Doing dishes is definately more pleasant when you have $2 Weber State plants to stare at.

Our first home warming gift!  Some of my ambassador friends got him for us. His name is szechuan.  Yup, I named him after the Chinese takeout I was eating that night.  Don't worry, I won't eat him though.
 The basement has one little nook that's finished.  We're hoping this will lure our friends with kids to come visit us. Or at least our friends that act like kids :)

Someday this room will rock


Home sweet home.



Now who wants to come help paint?
